Youth Directors - Golders Green & Hampstead - United Synagogue

Two Youth Directors - 8 to 10 hours per week, from August 2018 to June 2019

Golders Green and Hampstead Synagogues are both vibrant places each with great potential for their youth. The communities are warm, benefiting from friendly and informal atmospheres that embrace communal diversity.

Between our two communities, we seek to recruit two Youth Directors to work within and across both campuses, singly or together depending on the occasion. We seek individuals, a pair or a couple, with real passion for working with Jewish youth (ages 11-18), able to provide informal educational and social activities, building their Jewish skills and knowledge.

The successful candidates will be required to participate each Shabbat during term time and on some festivals, together with facilitating weekday youth activities and undertaking preparation during the week. You will need to be charismatic and enthusiastic and have an excellent track record in youth leadership and a desire to promote modern authentic Judaism to all our youth. Applicants should have initiative and good communication skills, and the ability to organise and administer events and programmes independently and as part of a team, efficiently and professionally. We welcome applications from both.
